    Painting metal on shower doors
    Updating an outdated bathroom. The shower doors have gold trim. Is there any way to paint the metal and not have the water damage it?

    Yes.. and no. You could scuff the metal and paint it... BUT it will not last... not long.. will begin to chip off very quickly. And the time involved to remove saop scum... never mind stuff in the creases/edges... etc. and then scuff, apply metal primer, and then paint... not worth your time.

    My opinion now, but they sell shower doors at home depot and Lowe's for around 175.oo. Easy remove, easy replace. Hope this helped.

    If it did please RATE MY ANSWER by clicking on rathe this answer at upper right or bottom of post. Thank you.
